New Patients
(Revised September 23, 2007)

Sorry to say, I am not currently taking new patients.  I know this is a huge problem in our area.  People who know me know that I have been working on trying to address this problem for years, and I'm still at it. 

You might have heard that I was taking new patients, which was true very briefly from mid-August to mid September 2007.  My apologies for not realizing in advance that this would not be a workable situation, and that it could lead to disappointment for people showing up on this page after that time. There are so many people looking for a psychiatrist in our area, I was getting as many as seven or eight new-patient inquiries per day.  At that rate, my empty spaces filled up very rapidly.

Dr. Hank Elder, who has offices in Lebanon and Corvallis, has recently been taking new patients without too much of a delay.  I fear this may not last much longer (somebody call me up, please, and let me know if it is more than two months to see him) but for now he may be an option: 754-0060.

If you are interested in a one-time evaluation, please read about arranging a consultation.  Thank you for your interest.
